Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Inspired by a movie, Beaver (Jerry Mathers) wants to become a hypnotist. This provides prankster Eddie Haskell (Ken Osmond) with a golden opportunity to pull a fast one. Pretending to be put into a trance by Beaver, Eddie cannot be snapped out of it -- or so he leads poor Beaver to believe. Inevitably, Beav's brother, Wally (Tony Dow), catches on to the practical joke, thereby setting the stage for one of the funniest "comeuppance" scenes in Leave It to Beaver history!
